Canadian Nationals Results: Victoria Poon Clips Sandrine Mainville By Slimmest of Margins in 50 Free
VICTORIA, British Columbia, April 5. CANADIAN record-holder Victoria Poon clipped her PPO training partner Sandrine Mainville by the slimmest of margins in the women’s 50-meter freestyle this evening.
Poon edged Mainville, 25.29 to 25.30, for the title. Poon had been hoping for a bit faster of a time, potentially even challenging her national record of 24.75, but was happy to just come out with the win. Chantal Van Landeghem rounded out the top three in the splash-and-dash with a time of 25.49.
